[00:10.687]Schmuel would work till half-past ten at his tailor shop in Klimovich
[00:16.187]Get up at dawn and start again with the hems and pins and twist
[00:23.187]Forty-one years had come and gone at his tailor shop in Klimovich
[00:28.437]Watching the winters soldier on, there was one thing Schmuel missed
[00:35.188]\"If I only had time,\" old Schmuel said
[00:37.938]\"I would build the dress that's in my head
[00:41.188]A dress to fire
[00:42.688]The mad desire
[00:43.938]Of girls from here to Minsk
[00:46.627]But I have no more hours left to sew"
[00:52.378]Then the clock upon the wal began to glow...
[01:00.321]And the clock said:
[01:01.570]"Na na na na, na na na
[01:03.267]Oh Schmuel, you'll get to be happy!
[01:06.701]Na na na na, na na na
[01:08.948]I give you unlimited time!
[01:11.698]Na na na na, na na na
[01:14.449]So Schmuel, go sew and be happy!"
[01:17.450]But Schmuel said
[01:17.949]"No, no, it's not my lot
[01:20.699]I've gotta make do witht he time I've got"
[01:33.379]Schmuel was done at half-past ten and he said \"Good night, old Klimovich\"
[01:39.129]Put on his coat to go, but then the clock cried, \"Wait! Not yet!
[01:45.880]Even though you're not wise or rich
[01:48.631]You're the finest man in Klimovich
[01:51.130]Listen up, Schmuel
[01:52.381]Make one stitch and you'll see what you get\"
[01:58.061]But Schmuel said
[01:58.812]"Clock, it's much too late
[02:00.811]I'm at peace with life
[02:02.062]I accept my fate..."
[02:03.562]But the clock said
[02:04.312]"Schmuel! One stitch and you will
[02:06.562]Unlock the dreams you've lost!\"
[02:09.312]So Schmuel, with reluctance, took his thread
[02:15.254]He pulled a bolt of velvet and said
[02:20.942]"I should take out my teeth and go to bed
[02:26.628]I'm sitting her with talking clocks instead!"
[02:34.379]And the clock said:
[02:35.129]"Na na na na, na na na
[02:37.379]Oh Schmuel, you'll get to be happy!
[02:40.129]Na na na na, na na na,
[02:42.879]I give you unlimited time
[02:45.378]Na na na na, na na na
[02:48.378]Just do it and you can be happy!"
[02:51.378]So Schmuel put the thread through the needle's eye
[02:54.879]And the moon stared down from a starless sky
[02:59.130]And he pushed the thread through the velvet black
[03:03.060]And he looked, and the clock was turning... back
[03:07.561]So he grabbed his shears and he cut some lace
[03:10.561]As the hands moved left on the old clock's face
[03:14.811]And his fingers flew and the fabric swirled
[03:17.561]It was nine-fifteen all around the world
[03:22.561]Every cut and stitch was a perfect fit
[03:25.811]As if God Himself were controlling it!
[03:29.061]And Schmuel cried through a rush of tears
[03:33.062]"Take me back! Take me back all forty-one years!\"
[03:48.812]And on it went down that silent street
[03:53.812]Till Schmuel's dress was at last complete
[04:00.063]And he stretched his arms
[04:02.813]And he closed his eyes
[04:06.312]And the morning sun finally started to rise
[04:19.813]And the dress he made on that endless night
[04:22.814]Was a dress that would make any soul take flight
[04:26.064]Not a swatch, not a skein had gone to waste
[04:29.314]Every ribbon and button ideally placed
[04:32.814]And swen into the seams were forty-one seasons of dreams
[04:43.064]Dreams that you could feel
[04:46.565]Coming real
[04:53.815]And that very dress, so the papers swore
[04:57.314]Was the dress a girl in Odessa wore
[05:00.065]On the day she promised forevermore
[05:03.815]To love a young man named Schmuel
[05:11.066]Who only one day before
[05:14.816]Had knocked at her kitchen door
[05:29.066]Plenty have hoped and dreamed and prayed
[05:31.816]But they can't get out of Klimovich
[05:36.067]If Schmuel had been a cute goyishe maid
[05:39.067]He'd've looked a lot like you
[05:44.567]Maybe it's just that you're afraid to go out on to a limb-ovich
[05:53.067]Maybe your heart's completely swayed
[06:00.567]But your head can't follow through
[06:03.567]But shouldn't I want the world to see
[06:04.818]The brilliant girl who inspires me?
[06:06.317]Don't you think that now's a good time to be
[06:09.068]The ambitious freak you are?
[06:12.318]Say goodbye to wiping ashtrays at the bar
[06:18.068]Say hello to Cathy Hiatt, big-time star!
[06:26.819]'Cause I say:
[06:28.319]Na na na na na na na na
[06:30.568]Cathy, you get to be happy!
[06:33.568]Na na na na na na na
[06:36.069]I give you unlimited time!
[06:38.319]Na na na na na na na
[06:41.069]Stop temping and go and be happy!
[06:44.819]Here's a headshot guy and a new BackStage
[06:47.819]Where you're right for something on every page
[06:50.820]Take a breath
[06:52.070]Take a step
[06:53.820]Take a chance
[07:00.070]Take your time
[07:16.321]Have I mentioned today
[07:20.821]How lucky I am
[07:24.320]To be in love with you!
